Brief History[edit | edit source]
The 5th Regiment, Vermont Infantry was organized at St. Albans and mustered in September 16, 1861. The regiment mustered out non-veterans October 14, 1864. All others mustered out June 29, 1865[1].
Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin[edit | edit source]
Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.
